We’ll honour international agreements —Buhari
President Muhammadu Buhari has given assurances that his administration would honour all international trade agreements that would directly improve the living conditions of Nigerians.
He gave the pledge at an audience with the outgoing Ambassador of Turkey to Nigeria, Mr Mustafa Pulat, at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, on Tuesday.
The president said that under his leadership, the Federal Government would give special attention to the implementation of such agreements, especially in the provision of infrastructure, good education and job opportunities.
He commended the ambassador’s efforts to expand areas of bilateral co-operation between Nigeria and Turkey, as well as the growth of trade between both countries in recent years.
He said: “I am impressed with the improvement in our trade relations which coincided with the period you arrived in Nigeria.
“As we settle down into governance, we will look into other areas in which we can work together and directly help our people.”
The president also praised the outgoing ambassador’s positive impact on education in Nigeria, as reflected in the increased number of Turkish schools and universities in Nigeria.
In his remarks, Mr Pulat said that during his two and a half years in Abuja, he focused on ensuring better cultural, educational and trade relations between Nigeria and Turkey.
